Michael: Yes, the device I linked to (and its successor) is a music player. But the successor will have a quite powerful processor, the tactile navigation, a powerful OS, and a screen with sufficient resolution to serve as a remote if it had Wi-Fi and a dedicated remote UI. My suggestion was for Slim Devices to see whether the Chinese mfr could produce a Sonos-killer remote at low cost.
Siduhe: My main problem with web interfaces is that (even with Ajax) they tend to trade lowest-common-demoninator functionality in exchange for multiclient support. So to use one example, they probably won't be able to take full advantage of iPod-style tactile navigation hardware since it's so platform-specific. -- Balthazar_B ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Balthazar_B's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7366 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27156 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
